  Kakashi and Daichi were moving through the streets of the Land of Tea. They were stig to the shadows and making their way to their target location.

  At that moment Daichi asked a question that's been on his mind. "Hey sensei. We might enter a ninja in this mission. So shouldn't this be beled as a B Rank instead of a k?"

  "That's a valid question. There are a couple of reasons for that. One, is that this mission ecifically assigo our team because most other Jonin and in were away with their own tasks. And sin enter with a hostile shinobi is a possibility this type of mission won't be given to a normal rookie Genin team."

  "But we aren't a normal rookie team."

  "No we're not. Now a few other Special Jonin would have taken the mission but the threat level described by the t doesn't warrant their participation. So the Hokage decided to give it to us. He knows that while you might be a Genin in Rank, you would be more than capable of holding yourself against an ordinary Jonin. So we're the best team to plete this without any problems. The sed reason is that while this mission is marked as a k, its pay is on the upper end b on B Rank missions."

  Daiodded with that reason. "So essentially a k mission with an almost B Rank mission pay. I live with that."

  The two Leaf ninjas quietly moved through the trees and soon the rge fortress was in their sight. They stood uhe cover of shadows and observed the bandits guarding their temporary home.

  Daichi looked at the structure of the fortress and was impressed. "The people who created this fortress were smart. They desighe castle in a symmetrical shape to help give the octs a broader line of sight and built taller towers which would maximize the view."

  The Jonin nodded with his student's assessment. "And this one even has a moat. It's several feet deep and filled with water. While it's rare, with how we walk on water, it's not that surprising.." He added.

  "I think that was the point. I took a sample of the water earlier aed it. There's poison mixed in it. It won't spread to the surrounding nds but whets ier will have a very bad day." Daichi said.

  Kakashi uood the reason behind such a move. "They want the intruder to walk on water. That way they'll be able to spot them quickly and attack."

  "Based on the re and blueprints, only one way in and out. And the drawbridge is closed. We'll have to use ah jutsu and move underground."

  The silver haired Jonin agreed with the pn. "We'll create a few shadow es and surround the area. Then we'll use Earth burrow jutsu and move about 8 feet uhe moat. We'll resurfa the south east se of the fortress."

  "Yes. Got it."

  Ohe pn was made, Daichi and Kakashi made a seal and a few shadow es popped up. They slowly moved around the giant storucture and took up their positions. The real Kakashi and Daichi, without wasting any more time, went through several hand seals.

  'Earth style - Earth Burrow Jutsu.'

  [Earth Style - Earth Burrow Jutsu - Active(LV.27): This jutsu allows the user to travel through the earth ued by most ninja. The chakra kneaded in the body is spread into the ground and softens the earth around the jutsu caster. The user disappears underground while the earth hardens on the surface. This jutsu allows the user to create a small tunnel by pressing and softening the earth around the person and helps the user move underground in any dire. Ohe chakra dissipates the tunnel colpses.]

  [Rank: C.]

  [Type: Ninjutsu]

  [Hand Seals: Snake - Boar - Bird - Ram.]

  [CP Cost: 67 Per Use.]

  [he movement speed of the user and creation speed of the tunnel will depend on the chakra supplied and the profi earth nature of the user.]

  Daichi and Kakashi sank into the earth. Daichi's senses allowed him to know the position of his es and he was able to make ah tunnel in the dire of their destination. The two ninjas moved beh the ground and the people keeping a lookout didn't sense anything amiss.

  A couple mier Kakashi and Daichi slowly poked their heads out of the group and looked ahead.

  "Good. We're within the castle walls. Let's stick to the shadows. We'll scale the walls and capture the targets. We o interrogate them. So put them isu a what you need. After that, knock them out and create a e in their pce."

  Under Kakashi's orders Daichi moved. The Genin had excellent stealth skills and the Jonin had a wealth of experiehe people keeping a lookout couldn't eve a hint of their presence.

  The two ninjas made their way to two guards up iowers keeping an eye ohing. Daichi looked at his target and used 'observe' skill.

  'Sasagawa Fujio. Level 11. High for a civilian but that's expected sidering his lifestyle. No special abilities or background. His stats all look normal. Looks like this guy is nothing special.'

  On position Daichi and Kakashi used Genjutsu owo bandit guards. The Jonin used his Sharingan and quickly put the bandit us powers.

  In aower Daichi went through seals and used a simple interrogatiosu. It was a jutsu Daichi had developed after learning about the brain during his time usuutege.

  'Genjutsu art - Hollowed Spirit.'

  Daichi chakra quickly ehe man's system and in moments he was under Daichi's trol. The Genin smiled as he saw the effects of his jutsu.

  'This Genjutsu puts the target at ease and makes them believe they're talking to someohey trust. That reduces their ce of rebelling or resisting the teique. This teique also puts restris on the areas of the brain that help in lying.'

  Daichi remembered the versation he had with his teacher during his study of the human brain.

  Fshback.

  "Is it possible to create a simple jutsu that manipute the brain and make the target give up the information easily? Based on the information I've read, the ones we currently have all employ some sort of brute forto the brain or mainly use pain as a stimulus. The exception is the Sharingan and a few other powerful Genjutsu." Daichi asked Tsunade as he was looking through the many books in front of him.

  "You're talking about creating a simple jutsu for interrogatio you? Do you think teiques like that do?" The Sannin raised an eyebrow at him.

  "I know they do. I'm sure Genjutsu specialists and the Yamanaka have teiques like that. But it's just that until I reach a much higher Rank, jutsus of that nature won't be avaible to me. So I'll have to create something simir myself."

  The blonde woman looked at her student for a few moments and then sighed. She decided to help Daichi with creating the jutsu. "A pulse trol. That's the key. Lying is much harder than telling the truth. One o have good impulse trol to lie or the truth will e out."

  The medical trainee listened closely as his teacher spoke. Daichi itted every word to his memory.

  "The main thing you o remember is that when a persoheir brain expends much more energy in trolling aing their body funs thahey're telling the truth. There are three areas in the brain that generally beore active duriion. The anterior gute cortex, the dorsoteral prefrontal cortex and the parietal cortex. The Anterior gute cortex is in charge of monit errors. The Dorsoteral prefrontal cortex is to trol behavior and the Parietal cortex processes sensory input. When someone's lying, these areas will work much harder." Tsunade said to her student.

  Daiodded his head and rubbed his . "So I o create a jutsu that limits their involvement. It should also have a pohat will reduce their resistand make them pliant."

  The Sannin nodded as she took a small sip from her sake bottle. Daichi raised an eyebrow looking at the se.

  "Should you really be drinking so early in the day?"

  The buxom woman looked annoyed and just waved her hand. "Give me a break. You're starting to sound like Shizune."

  Fshbad.

  Daichi had a small smile on his lips as he remembered that day. He let go of the memories and focused oask at hand.

  'This is a perfect jutsu for a weak minded guy like this. But the problem is, a petent in or Jonin will be able to see through this jutsu. They will be able to resist and break out. Well, this jutsu is only at Level 4 right now. O's higher I'm sure more effects will be added and this will be much stroime to start my interrogation.'

  "Are all of your friends currently ihis fortress?" Daichi asked the man whose eyes looked gzed over as if he was in a trance.

  "Yes. They're all here." The bandit Sasagalied.

  "Have you captured any citizens from the Tea try or nearby areas?"

  "No. Boss specifically said not to kidnap or kill anyone."

  The Genin was somewhat surprised at that admission. "How many shinobi are here in the fortress?"

  "One."

  "Including yourself, how many in total are here in the fortress?"

  "15."

  'So 14 bandits and one Ninja.' Daichi thought about the situation and it didn't make much seo him. "Why did you e to Tea try? What's the pn?"

  "Boss made us e here. He's looking for something in the castle. We just did what he told us."

  A theory was beginning to take shape in the Genin's head about the whole situation.

  "How strong is your boss? Where is he from?"

  "We don't know. He just appeared around a month ago and none of us could beat him in a fight."

  'Not surprising. These guys wouldn't survive against a det Geni alone a possible in.' The Genin nodded his head in thought. "Have you set up any traps in the castle for intruders?" Daichi asked his st question.

  "Boss set some up ier walls but nothing else."

  "Alright. Since you were very cooperative, I'll let you take a nap."

  Doh his questioning, Daichi khe man out and hid him in a er. The Genied a shadow e and had it transform into Sasagawa.

  "Make sure nothing goes wrong."

  The e nodded in silend the real Daichi went to his sensei. By the time Daichi reached Kakashi the Jonin was just standing there leaning against the wall with a carefree attitude reading his book.

  "What took you so long? I was getting bored." The Jonin said with a smug attitude.

  "Well excuse me for not having a bullshit eye that read people's minds with a look."

  Kakashi just chuckled at Daichi's deadpan tone and pocketed his e book.

  "One ninja. Rank and strength unknown. Fourteen bandits, no hostages and some traps oer walls." Daichi gave his report.

  Kakashi nodded his head. "Yeah that's about what I got too. Hm… But still, we o make sure. With your sensory abilities you should be able to locate everyone here. you firm?"

  Daichi made a seal and his chakra sensei skill activated. He expahe rao cover the whole castle and found the oh the biggest chakra aside from them.

  "15 chakra signatures in total firmed. I didn't sense any distress or erratients in their chakra. So not hostages. They're all enemies. I also found the location of the enemy ninja. Based on his chakra I'd say he's low to mid in."

  Hearing that Kakashi created a shadow e and dispelled it. "My e outside will disable the traps oer walls. Let's save the enemy in for st and capture the bandits now."

  Daiodded and the two ninjas split up. Daichi gave his sehe location of their targets and they went to work.

  With a sleepisu here, a swift hand chop to the here and the sparse use of Sharingan, Kakashi and his student incapacitated araihe ehe two moved in such perfect coordination that they were able to plete their first task without anyone raising the arm.

  They brought the captured bandits and locked them in a small room in the fortress.

  "That was easy."

  "Please don't jinx us sensei." Daichi said with a sigh.

  "e on. There's no such thing." The Jonin gave Daichi an i smile as he said the words.

  Daichi looked at the man and just gave a tired groan. "It's like you're iionally tempting the universe to spire against us… Let's just go get this guy and plete our mission."

  The two stealthily made their way to where the leader of the bandit team was. The enemy ninja was currently in the rge bedroom located in the middle of the fortress. The Genin sehe other person's chakra and hat the man was agitated.

  'He seems stressed. Did he find out about us? No. If that were the case he'd be trying to flee. Based on his movements I'm guessing he's looking for something in that room.'

  Daichi recalled the blueprints he saw earlier and found that the room was the rgest in the whole fortress. 'The personal room of the former owner of this fortress.'

  Kakashi gave his student a nod and then knocked on the door several times. Both of them heard an irritated groan ing from the other side along with hurried footsteps.

  "I thought I told all of you that I'm not to be disturbed!" The man shouted as he quickly opehe door. He expected to see his underlings but found two Leaf ninjas waiting for him.

  "Sup." Kakashi greeted the enemy ninja with a wave of his hand.

  The man's eyes widened and before he could make a move, he suddenly froze in his pce. He felt as if something was restraining his arms, legs and torso.

  Before the enemy ninja could even utter any words, Daichi used chakra strings to quickly immobilize him ahen verted the strings to lightnirog the man.

  "Grrr…" The maed for a few seds before dropping to the floor.

  "Night night." The Leaf Genin smiled as he looked at the intruding shinobi who fell unscious.

  Kakashi looked at the downed ninja and looked at his student. "See. Easy."

  Daichi just shook his head at his teacher's words and picked up the knocked out ninja.

  "Let's go see the Daimyo. I'm sure he'd love to meet this guy." The Jonin said and they left the fortress.
